responding to the knit signal - somalia appeal

do you have a newborn or know of a friend's baby that you'd like to buy one of these hats for?

UPDATE - only one left! the coral and lemon one. get in touch before you miss it!

they have been knitted in 100% fairtrade organic cotton (debbie bliss eco baby) and they can be machine washed at 40 degrees. the size is approximately 0-3 months. the colours (which are slightly distorted here are lemon yellow, coral and grey).

so, here's what you do. if you'd like to buy one, just head to the MSF website and donate whatever you can afford to Médecins Sans Frontières MSF (Doctors Without Borders) Somalia appeal. then contact me to tell me you've done so, tell me which hat you would like (only one per order) and give me your address so i can post it to you (i will post anywhere in the world).
